CHAPTER 8

While ChibiUsa and Fira were walking behind the guard, Fira was getting a little nervous. Looking at her friend, ChibiUsa asked if she was all right.

"I'm worried." she replied.

"About what?"

"What your parents may do to me or my sisters." Fira finished. ChibiUsa was about to say something, when she too fell to the ground and started to fade.

"Are you OK? Why are you fading like that?" Fira asked her.

"I... I don't know." ChibiUsa answered. "But I'm fine now." she said smiling.

"Small Lady, you're back!" It was Pluto and with her were Uranus, Neptune and Saturn.

"Pluto, what's going on? Where's everybody going?" ChibiUsa asked as she saw Super Mars and Super Mercury run by them.

"We're under attack, Small Lady." Neptune told the girl.

"Please go to the throne room. Your parents are there too." Uranus said.

Serenity clutched her daughter's locket tightly.

"Is Usagi really home?" she thought. Then turning to her husband.

"I can't just sit around and do nothing." she told him.

"What else can we do?" he cried out exasperated.

"Help, of course" she said as an idea came to her, "and I know just how to help them." Endymion looked at her as if he knew what she meant.

"Serenity, you're not going to try and transform, are you?"

"I must, they need me." she said looking at him.

"But, you'll kill yourself. The crystal no longer works for you, just as it will for Usagi when she becomes queen." he told her. "And what about that faint spell you had?"

"That's what Rei tells us, nobody knows for sure and I'll be alright. Please, let me try, if I live then Usagi will be able to protect her kingdom when it needs help. If I die..." Serenity stopped talking. She didn't want to think about what might happen to her. Endymion went to her, held her close to him and told her to be careful.

"Thank you." she whispered to him, "I know you'd understaned."

Stepping away from him, Serenity called out, "Moon Eternal... Make up!"

At that moment ChibiUsa and Fira walk in.

"Mom!" she cried and ran to her mother, but was stopped by her father.

"ChibiUsa you're home! We've missed you so much." he said, giving his little girl a hug.

"ChibiUsa? I thought you said your name was Usagi?" Fira asked confused.

"My name is Usagi. My mother's maiden name is also Usagi, before she became queen and went by the name of Serenity."

"So why call you ChibiUsa?" Fira asked.

"Because, now my mother's pastself is here, and it would be confusing for her friends if there were two Usagis around." ChibiUsa explained. "So for now, to tell us apart, I'll be going by the name of ChibiUsa. But once they go home, I go back to being called Usagi." Then ChibiUsa turned to face her mother, who was now Eternal Sailor Moon.

"Mom please, give me the crystal and let me go help the Senshis." she begged her mother.

"No, I've got to do this, Usagi." Eternal Moon said as she gave her daughter a hug. "You and Fira go back and save Sailor Moon, before we both disappear." Eternal Moon told her. Surprised Fira looked at Eternal Moon.

"H... how did you know who I was?" she asked the lady.

"And what do you mean 'before we both disappear'?" Endymion demanded.

"I figured you were Fira, because I've never seen you." Eternal Moon told the girl, while dodging her husband's question. ChibiUsa said good-bye to her parents and they left.

"You Bitch," yelled Mizuko, as she wiped the blood from her arm, "I'll kill you." Charging forward, she pinned Super Mars to the gate. "You're going to pay for that." she hissed, then cried out "Tempest... WAVE!"

"Ahhhh!" Super Mars cried and passed out on the ground.

"Super Mars! Hold on, I'm coming!" Jupiter called to the fallen Senshi. She prepared herself to attack, but was stopped by Super Venus.

"You take care of Super Mars, I'll get her." Super Venus told her. Jupiter nodded and Super Venus attacked, "Venus, Love and Beauty... SHOCK!"

"Nooo, Miiizuukoo!" Gaia cried as she ran to her fallen sister. "Mizuko, Mizuko..."

"Gaia... listen to... me..."

"Don't talk, you've been hurt badly." Gaia told her.

"Kazeko, she's... up to something...,"

"What?"

"I... I think she... she set us up. Now listen... I'm going... to... pretened... to... to be dead."

"If you keep talking you will die, now hush." Just then Kazeko joined her. Gaia looked at her, "She dead, Kazeko." "No, that's not true. Mizuko wake up, please wake up." she cried. "They killed another one of my sisters. Those Bitches killed Mizuko, just like they killed Esumerodo!" Kazeko yelling as she got up and turned to the three women. Gaia looked up at Kazeko and tried to calm her down.

"Why should I? Why does she get to live, but not Mizuko?" Kazeko yelled at her, as she pointed to Super Mars.

"Kazeko, yelling won't bring Mizuko or Esumerodo back." Gaia tried telling her, but she wouldn't listen. Kazeko ran towards the three woman and attacked them with her wind sword.

While all this was going on, Fira suddenly stopped running.

"Fira, are you OK, what's the matter?" ChibiUsa asked.

"Mizuko, she's... she's dead... I lost another sister." she answered, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Are you sure? How do you know?"

"My sisters and I have a bond, we can feel each other's chi. That's how we knew about Esumerodo's death." ChibiUsa knew that if they didn't hurry, everybody would be dead or near death. By the time they got to the hideout, Fira was crying for fear of losing the only two sisters she had left, but ChibiUsa encouraged her to keep looking for Sailor Moon. They found the frozen girl in Mizuko's room.

"We found her!" they exclaimed happily.

"All right, now that we have her, lets stop this fight." ChibiUsa bravely said.

"Umm, ChibiUsa I think it would work better if we defrost her first." Sheepishly ChibiUsa agreed.

"OK, stand back this could be dangerous. Magma... BLAST!" Fira yelled, but nothing happened. The two friends looked at each other.

"All right. I'm going to try that again." Fira said.

Shouting, "Phoenix Fire... SEROUND!" nothing happened, yet again. ChibiUsa hug her head in despair, when she suddenly heared her friend laughting.

"Fira are you OK?"she asked.

"Mizuko's not dead." Fira said.

"W...what? How do you know?"

"Because, if she was dead, Sailor Moon would be already defrosted." she replied.

Ok one more to go, hang in there, you're almost done. Chapter 9, wow what a long fic. See you then, later.
